kx450f supermoto rims on a 95 kx500

(1/4) > >>

muleman:
Would newer kx450f super moto rims fit on my 95 kx500. I read some were that sumthing was diffrent but not sure what.    I have accsess to a mill and a small lathe so I can make spacers and axles if need be.. Thanks for any help

KX500freak:
i dunno too ,but i have an advice,
take your k5 wheel to your closest kawa mx dealer,
compare it to the kx450f wheel ,maybe there,s even one or two in maintenance atm ,
then it s prolly deadeasy to measure dimensions secure ,since the wheels are maybe out .

goodluck

muleman:
that is a good idea.  I want both super moto wheels and dirt other wise i would just have them relaised.

jfabmotorsports.com:
Rotor to sprocket are with in .065" of being the same with. That is the hard measurement to overcome. I would mill the slots in the swingarm to accept the KX450f axle, build new blocks, bore the caliper bracket and build spacers. Buy yourself two KX450F wheels and your are rolling. Pun intended!  :-D

Or Put "oldstyle" bearings into the hubs like the K5. And maybe new spacers for the sumo set.
Than you can run the mx wheels to without modifying and less work.
